Vios and Corolla differ in size, model type, and suspension system. The Vios is a compact sedan under the Toyota brand, with the latest top model being the 2022 1.5L CVT Xing CARE Edition. The Corolla is a compact sedan under the Toyota brand, with the latest top model being the 2021 Hybrid 1.8L E-CVT Flagship Edition. Different sizes: The Vios measures 4435mm in length, 1700mm in width, and 1490mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2550mm. The Corolla measures 4635mm in length, 1780mm in width, and 1455mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. Different suspension systems: The Vios uses a torsion beam non-independent rear suspension. The Corolla uses an E-type multi-link independent rear suspension. Taking the Vios 2021 1.5L Manual Xing Edition as an example: it is a compact car under FAW Toyota, equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission. Different models: The Vios is classified as a compact sedan, while the Corolla is a compact sedan, one level higher than the Vios, offering advantages in space, power, and configuration. The Vios is positioned one level below the Corolla, with only 1.3L and 1.5L naturally aspirated engine options, paired with a 5-speed manual or CVT transmission, and is positioned as a compact sedan.

I just changed my car and spent a long time researching the Vios and Corolla. There are quite a few differences between them. The Vios is positioned as more entry-level, with a starting price one or twenty thousand lower, making it very friendly for budget-conscious friends, like office workers like me. It's smaller in size, making it very agile in the city and super convenient for parking. It's also more fuel-efficient, saving a few kilometers per hundred kilometers, which can add up to significant savings over time. The Corolla is a compact car, noticeably more spacious inside, with ample rear legroom, making it comfortable for families or long trips. In terms of features, the Corolla is much more advanced, coming standard with safety assistance systems like collision warning, and the interior is more premium. However, both are reliable, and the Toyota brand is known for durability. Choosing the Vios leans toward economy and practicality, while the Corolla is for those pursuing comfort and comprehensiveness—it depends on your lifestyle. I chose the Vios because I only use it for short commutes, and the money saved can be used for other things.

What are the reasons for high fuel consumption in an old Jetta?

The reasons for high fuel consumption in an old Jetta are as follows: 1. Improper adjustment of the carburetor main jet. 2. Malfunction or improper adjustment of ignition system components. 3. Improper adjustment of the fuel pump and injector in the fuel injection system. 4. Excessive wear between pistons, piston rings, and cylinder walls. 5. Poor sealing of the valve mechanism or excessive valve clearance. 6. Engine temperature being too high or too low. 7. Slipping clutch malfunction. 8. Excessive tightness in the fit between transmission shafts, bearings, and gears. 9. Improper toe-in adjustment. 10. Brake drum dragging phenomenon. 11. Tire pressure not meeting requirements, with low pressure.

What Causes Car Air Conditioning Failure?

Here are the reasons why a car's air conditioning may fail: 1. Incorrect refrigerant ratio: Modern air conditioning systems use R-134a refrigerant, which requires a specific proportion range—neither too much nor too little. An improper ratio can affect the cooling performance, which can be monitored using an air conditioning pressure gauge. 2. Dirty or clogged air filter: When the car is running with the air conditioning on, it draws in outside air, which contains dust particles, odors, and other harmful particles. The air filter is designed to trap these contaminants. However, over time, the filter can become clogged, restricting airflow and reducing cooling efficiency while increasing fuel consumption. Therefore, regular inspection of the air filter is essential. 3. Dirty radiator or condenser: The radiator and condenser are responsible for heat dissipation and are located in the engine compartment at the front of the car. Due to current assembly techniques, engine covers have small gaps that allow dust to enter. If these components become too dirty, heat dissipation is compromised. While the air conditioning system may appear to function normally, cooling performance will be poor, and fuel consumption may increase. Thus, regular cleaning of the engine compartment is necessary.

Is there a penalty for exceeding the speed limit by 5%?

Driving medium-sized or larger passenger or cargo vehicles, hazardous material transport vehicles on roads other than highways and urban expressways, or driving other motor vehicles exceeding the speed limit by 5% will result in a 3-point penalty. The following are the hazards of speeding: 1. Reaction time: Speeding reduces the driver's reaction time. Speeding increases the frequency of overtaking, requiring higher speeds for each overtaking maneuver, while the overtaken vehicle must slow down to yield, thereby increasing the number of weaving and conflict points on the road. During this process, the driver's reaction time is significantly reduced, increasing the likelihood of accidents. 2. Judgment: Speeding affects the driver's judgment. The faster the speed, the farther the driver's focus point and the narrower the field of vision, leading to poorer speed judgment. Not only does it impair the driver's ability to accurately judge their own vehicle's speed, but it also causes underestimation of the speeds of pedestrians, non-motorized vehicles, and other motor vehicles, while weakening the ability to assess road conditions.

What Causes Sudden Abnormal Tire Pressure Warning in a Car?

Abnormal tire pressure warnings are generally caused by the following three reasons: Tire Pressure Anomaly: The system typically triggers an alert when pressure falls below 1.8bar or exceeds 3.0bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Unreset Tire Pressure Monitoring System: If the system isn't reset after tire inflation, it continues to display previously recorded data, causing the warning light to illuminate. Simply performing a tire pressure reset will resolve this. Damaged Tire Pressure Sensor: These sensors, installed inside tires and connected to the inflation valve, monitor tire pressure. If damaged during driving (e.g., by impact), they may trigger the warning light. Damaged sensors must be replaced with new components. Tire Pressure Reset: This refers to resetting the tire pressure monitoring system after addressing any tire pressure issues. Tire Pressure Reset Method: 1. Turn on the ignition 2. Press and hold the tire pressure reset button until hearing a "beep" 3. Release the button - the system will now store current normal pressure data and erase previous records 4. The dashboard warning light will extinguish, indicating successful reset.

How to Properly Depress the Clutch?

Correct methods for depressing the clutch include: 1. Use the ball of your left foot to press the clutch pedal; 2. Utilize the extension and flexion movements of the knee and ankle joints to depress or release the clutch pedal; 3. When depressing the clutch pedal, do so swiftly and press it all the way down in one motion; 4. When releasing the clutch pedal, follow the 'two fast, two slow, one pause' technique. Precautions for depressing the clutch: When not using the clutch, keep your foot off the clutch pedal to avoid accelerating the wear of the clutch release bearing. The clutch, generally referring to the clutch assembly, is located within the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch serves as the input shaft of the transmission.

Where is the fuel tank cap switch on the Tiguan?

The Tiguan does not have a separate switch for the fuel tank cap. Simply press the fuel tank cap when the vehicle is unlocked, and it will automatically pop open. When the vehicle is locked, the fuel tank cap will also automatically lock. Depending on the model, the fuel tank cap is generally located on the rear quarter panels on either side of the vehicle. Taking the 2017 Tiguan as an example: it is positioned as a compact SUV, with body dimensions of 4506mm in length, 1809mm in width, and 1685mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2684mm. In terms of suspension, the 2017 Tiguan features a front McPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension.
